OKay, I saw a matchbox 370Z at the store just the other day and bought it. It has no useful purpose other than to make me smile and give my kids something to play with. How many of you have bought models of your cars?

i'm thinking about picking up a 1/24 maisto

OP: You are lucky and found what you were looking for. I am looking for a 370Z 1:32 slot car. I've got the 350Z as the closest car. I have a couple of XKE's already.

I always buy toys/models/diecasts of my cars... or any other car I like for that matter.

takjak2 · 01-15-2012, 12:49 PM

Every time I'm near a section of toy cars in a store I go looking for Z stuff.

I found a new 370z hot wheels when volunteering for the Santa Claus Shop (giving christmas gifts to kids/families who are less fortunate).
At first I wanted to keep it, but then I thought it'd be better for a kid to get it for christmas.
prefer the big/real version anyway...

TheGreatOne · 01-15-2012, 01:24 PM

I'm holding out for a 1:18 to match up with my other models...

but I might be a 1:24 die cast and also saw a mini 370Z christmas ornament for the tree, might get that too lol

I have a matchbox and this rc car (penny racer size)

280z/300zx · 01-15-2012, 05:26 PM

Have over 2000+ Z's ranging from smaller than a micro machine to as large as 1:10 scale.

Also have about 500 other various cars that I like. Skyline's new and old, STI's, etc.

tjlazer · 01-15-2012, 06:31 PM

I got some blue matchbox ones as I found they were hard to find.

also got a blue maisto 1:24 die cast but it was on the small side compared to my 300ZX 1:24!

Where does the line blur between passion and obsession?
